Artist Comment

I did not expect to wall another chii until I found Kitten's - A New Journey Begins. I decided to make a partner for it
but it became a partner by character rather than by concept. Ok you guys might say "Why not the whole scan?"
it's because I want the focus to be on chii or else the focus will be on the big hair and the crystal she is sitting on.
If people did comment about it then I would say you didnt read!

The lineart took me 3 days for the hair and 2 days for the rest of lineart. Coloring took me 2 days again...The style is
sort of similar to my Still Doll wallpaper. If in that wall vectoring the hair was hard, this time the lineart of the
hair was hard but coloring was fun( duh there is no lineart in the hair of Still Doll XD).

As for the BG it took me another 2 days. I almost wanted to give this up, because the bubbles are so hard! Good thing
Kitten was there to snap me out of it. I swear I died doing the bubbles --> you can see that in my process picture.
My first attempt looks weird then I tried vectoring it. but it still looks flat then I removed the linear of it and made
it a bit transparent. I applied masking too. This is my first time doing masking!

Although the original BG was fine something kinda looks missing so I added fishies <3 I painted using a mouse *wish I
have a tablet*

I definitely took my time scrutinizing every lineart of chii to make it sure it was smooth just like what Kitten and
Nysha asked me to do. Hope I got every one of them.

give up! it would be such a waste! they loon awesome ya know? *thumbs up*
like the idea with fishies :3 kawai xD
A REALLY BI THANK YOU *hugs tight* thats an really lovely wall ;/////; *tears of happieness*

Nice job on the vector - I really like how smooth the lines are and the painting job was well done, too. I just wish
there was more depth/saturation/shadows in the right lower corner as she floats deeper into the ocean.

Still, a very nice job on this and I like the details and effort put into this! :)

im glad u did all the lines...seeing CLAMP's works with bold lines just look so right...:3
and plus u did sharp shadings though on some parts i wish u didnt blur it...but each people just have their own taste
and style...
good job!

i think you did a really good job on the colouring, the original - which i think looks rather drab - would never have
catched my eye in any way, but your wall did right in the moment that i opened up minitokyo (which is even more
surprising, because i don't even like chobits xD).
and your bubbles look great now, your effort really payed off (i wish i could do that, too xD).
i might just be a noob, but i can at least say, that i like this wall a lot xD thanks a lot for sharin :D greetings and
have a really great day!

Great vector, it's very distinguished, definitely a show stopper! Background seems tranquil, just the right atmosphere
for the character. I've got nothing but admiration for your work so thanks a bunch for sharing it!

Another fantastic job here..
Perhaps the black outline on her knee and some on her hair is too thick.. and maybe more shading for the inside of her
skirt would be nice.. :)
Other than that, this is one's a masterpiece! ^_^
